In advance, I am about to give horrendous horrible advice by /r/motorcyles standards, you probably shouldn't listen to me. Take what I have to say with a grain of salt but have a nice chuckle to yourself when I'm proven right 2 years from now.

You'll need a couple things:

Endorsement: ~$300, 3 full days of free time

Gear: Helmet and gloves will suffice as you're a teenager on a budget. Jacket too if that floats your boat but don't bother with riding pants until you have cash lying around and you know you're going to be riding like an asshole. Helmets are sometimes sold with bikes, but I'm sure you can find one from $20-$100 on craigslist. Gloves are an easy $30. Jacket isn't required but probably a good idea, maybe $100+. You can find a cheapo leather jacket at value village for $30.

Bike: This is the big one. This is your first bike and you're a stupid teenager so you'll need to know a few things. A. You're going to wreck hardcore and it's going to be great. Get hyped. and B. You're not going to have any idea what you're doing and that's okay. Find somebody you know who knows even a little bit about bikes and have them help you scour craigslist. You don't want to buy something that starts once for the ride home and never again. There's all sorts of little things you want to check out like the sprocket and the tire tread and a bunch of other stuff you know nothing about, so get someone else to do it for you. Or hit the youtube, "motorcycle general maintenance tutorial".

Parts: Parts and labor cost a lot of money. Invest in a toolset first, then start doing research on maintenance intervals for your bike. Buy common use items like chain lube then save $500 to stick in a glass jar that you'll break when you crash your bike.

I bought my first bike when I was 16. Terrible purchase for a slow RARE piece of shit. That means zero reasonably priced parts available for a thing that's always falling apart. I crashed that, so I then decided to get my endorsement.

I bought my second bike when I was 17. Decent purchase, good learner/commuter bike. I ignored the progressively increasing clicking noise and one day I heard a big snap and that was the end of that bike. It was pretty fucking comfy.

I bought my third bike when I was 18. A little sportier than my last two and a lot more performance oriented. I crashed this one 3 times and got a shitton of traffic violations but my acquired maintenance skills kept that fella alive for 3 years. That was the best bike I've ever ridden, crashed him for the last time two months ago :(

Anyways the point I was getting at with that is shit happens and you probably won't know any better until it's too late. Have an emergency fund available at all times for maintenance and always consider the possibilities of speeding tickets and medical bills. Be sure to tell your mom the top speed of whatever you get and learn local traffic laws related to motorcyclists and undercover police vehicles.

Don't ride outside your limits and put a ton of time into learning about common crash scenarios. The only time you crash should be from leaning too far or if it was actually someone else's fault. Be smart about when you go balls out. Don't get cocky because you've ridden down the same road 100 times without incident.

Here, have a badass motorcycle gif. It sounds to me like you need to make the money yourself if you're going to ride but hey you're in high school and that means you have zero financial responsibility. Great time to save. So yeah, go buy a motorcycle. You'll get a bunch of pussy.

For your first point, can they (google, facebook, etc.) legally use that information against you in a court of law? If so, can you clarify what kind of information they would use?

I think to be smart and based on other people's stories I'll post from someone else's computer. I'm sure there's programs out there that strip the metadata from your footage but I shouldn't rely on that, who knows how reliable those are.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. The best I can tell one of the guys in these videos is a founder of Fast Bikes Magazine and the rest of the dudes are just an assorted crew of stunters, professional racers, and just all around hoons. They appear to be pro motorcycle testers (prob for the magazine). I honestly can't find any more info than that, all I've got is some youtube videos.

It's mostly just footage of a bunch of french dudes in the 90's being squids on public roads. They get pulled over a lot.

That I requested necessary evidence or some shit and they didn't deliver on their end. It sounded like we could have just moved the court date back but the judge was lazy or generous and just said "case dismissed" when I talked about the calibration records. Shot in the dark but it'll improve your chances a little.

Edit: Two other of my irl friends have done the same thing and one of them has gotten off twice with this method.
